Polish el presidente’s image, please man. We’re actually not asking, we’re telling you… that’s pretty much what the ANC is expecting from its mouthpiece, the SABC.

For far too long the truth about Jacob Zuma has been published by the state-owned media. So, the ANC’s PR machine has kicked into gear and wants the public broadcaster to portray Zuma in a more positive light – if they can find enough electricity to shed some light that is –.

The idea is for the ANC to ‘reclaim’ the SABC and paint Zuma and the government in such a way that those who still watch SABC only see the good news.

Basically, no more Nkandla, tax scandals and sexual harassment stories on Zuma and the rest of the proletariat.
